21. Belle

Chapter twenty-one

Belle

T roy never joined us in the nest in the end, and now that I've finally reached the final stages of my heat, I have no choice but to accept the cold, hard truth.

The Alpha doesn't want me.

And he probably never will at this pivotal point.

I was a fool to think he ever would.

I must have imagined the time he told me that he was glad I was back when I first got home. It's the only explanation.

As if things could be different this time around.

In the end, I am and always will be an outsider.

Maybe the guys don't really care about me after all and they will never let me join their pack bond.

It's fine…

No, it's not.

Tears brim in my eyes, and Leo stops fucking me immediately.

I'm currently lying on my back, and the Alpha does everything in his power not to crush me.

"You good, kitty cat?"

I turn away at his sweet endearment, and it shouldn't be this way. I shouldn't be depressed during my first heat.

I have my Alphas and my Omega, yet something is missing.

In the end, there is a Troy-shaped hole in my heart, and the only thing that can take it away is the Alpha himself.

But he made his choice.

A splutter bursts from my lips and damn my Omega.

She's far too weepy…

Yet I would be lying to myself if I said it was just my Omega.

There's some of me in there, too.

After all, I am a sensitive soul.

A sensitive soul who has had to do what she could to survive, and it hasn't made me harder over the years.

It's made me weaker.

On the inside.

On the outside, I am titanium. But inside, I'm a gooey mess.

In other words, pathetic.

Crying is pathetic and a sign of weakness.

Leo grabs my chin and forces me to look at him, though not harshly.

This Alpha could never be harsh with me.

"You don't need him, Belle…" he whispers, and more tears escape me.

Rian crawls closer, placing my head on his lap as he combs his fingers through my hair.

There's no missing the taut expression on his face.

He must be pretty pissed at the Alpha too, but it may be time they all found it in their hearts to forgive Troy.

He made a mistake, and he has learned his lesson.

Rian glances at Leo, and I know they're having another internal conversation.

Leo shakes his head, and Rian's face hardens.

Leo's knot is still inside me, so I can't move from my spot.

But when the Alpha begins to soften, Rian lifts me off the pillows and sits me down on his lap. "Troy will come around one day, Belle. I promise."

I nod, laying my head back on his shoulder.

It hurts, and not just the rejection.

It hurts everywhere.

My body shudders in pain, and Rian glances at Jeremy.

The Alpha comes to my aid, and now he takes me from Rian, cradling me on his lap as he purrs in my ear.

"You finally want to know what it was that my cousin told me?"

I perk up, meeting his storm-cloud eyes.

He brushes a sweaty strand of hair from my forehead, then strokes my nose. "He told me that I would know from the moment I saw you that you were mine."

My heart pounds, and I squeeze my eyes, fighting back tears.

It's too much.

Jeremy runs his finger up and down the slope of my nose. "I thought he was an idiot at the time, but now I'm starting to think he was on to something."

I'm too inconsolable to talk next, and that's when the guilt claws its fingers at me.

Here I am, crying about an Alpha who doesn't want me when I have three guys who would move mountains for me.

Jeremy grabs my fist, pressing his thumb over the hideous numbers.

He doesn't seem to find them hideous, though. He places a soft kiss on the tender skin and a shuddery breath leaves me.

My body cramps and it looks like my Omega is craving another knot.

Jeremy senses my need. It pours off me in waves, spreading caramel around the nest, and now he whispers in my ear.

"Ever wondered what it would be like to have two knots at once?"

Oh, he has no idea what thoughts run through my mind.

I'm not as innocent as I look.

I blame all the smutty books.

Jeremy looks across the nest at Leo, and now the Alpha gets into position behind me.

Leo rubs his hand over my pussy, collecting some of my slick so he can lubricate his shaft.

Then he aligns himself with my ass and slips inside.

Thank goodness for all the slick. Because this would probably hurt.

This is how he fucks Rian most likely, and I clench around the Alpha's cock as an excited shudder runs down my body.

Jeremy nestles his cock inside my pussy, and now I meet him at the hilt, adjusting to the sensation of having two cocks inside me.

Those cocks will soon turn into knots, and I can't wait.

Jeremy thrusts, pushing me toward Leo, and they go back and forth, over and over.

My orgasm starts at the base of my spine. Then it spreads through my body, shaking away any doubts I had about the pack.

It even dissipates all memory of Troy as nothing but pure, sweet bliss takes over.

Rian massages my tits, pulling and sucking at the sore nipples, and it doesn't take me long to come.

Jeremy pumps faster, and he and Leo release at the same time, filling me up with their cum, and then their knots swell.

Having a knot in my ass is a different experience, and every nerve in my body is on fire next as another orgasm works its way through me, beginning at my tailbone again.

Rian steps closer, offering me his cock, and I open my mouth eagerly, a fledging bird awaiting a worm.

The Omega's chest heaves as I move my mouth and tongue up and down his length.

A generous amount of pre-cum pours from him the longer and harder I suck, and when I meet his eyes, gazing up through my eyelashes, he comes.

I lap up every drop, hollowing my cheeks as I work my tongue and lips along his hard shaft, and he releases yet again.

Leo and Jeremy follow suit, and with one final push, I reach my biggest peak.

They help me crest the wave, and when I fall back down, my thoughts piece back together again.

My heat is finally over, and it has been one of the most thrilling and heartbreaking times of my life.

Not to mention, filthy.

We're all dripping with each other's fluids.

Leo loosens up and pulls free, and his cum pours out of my ass.

Jeremy does the same, and now his seed drips from my pussy.

I'm sore and every part of me aches.

That was three whole days of pure, wanton fucking, and I am tired.

But my guys are on hand to clean me up, and their hands are reverent as they lay me down in the bathtub, their fingers soothing every aching muscle in my body.

I must have fallen asleep in the tub at some point because the last thing I recall is being lifted from the steaming water and being carried weightlessly in a pair of strong arms.

I'm spent.

But it's an experience I will remember for the rest of my life.
